    I was a loooong time ago. I need to lose about 30 to be there again. When I was there, I was a size 12. *memories*

    My goal is 175 - 165. :D

    I am about 5'10 and once weighed 198, now am 168. I have lost 20lbs since being on here, but lost 10 lbs before I was on here. I am stuck at 168-170.

    I'm a little under 5'9 and my highest weight was somewhere around 213. I'm in the 160s now, so I was at 188 for a while :laugh:

    I'm 5'9 and around 185 (I haven't weighed in in a few weeks). Trying to make my first goal of 175, then reassessing. I'd like to be in our healthy weight range. And maybe even, you know, not at the very tippy top for the first time in a looooonng time.

    I was 5'9' 188 about 3 months ago and now I'm 160. I did Jillian videos in addition to cardio on the treadmill or elliptical 6 days a week. I also upped my protein and am eating pretty clean. I stay away from fast food and stuff in a box or bag. I'm almost at my goal weight. It can be done and at the same time have a life. I still eat out every so often and drink alcohol. So i'm not depriving myself at all. I'm going to do Jillian's kettle ball dVD next. I still have goals to set.

    I am also 5ft 8inches i weigh 181. The most i ever weighed was 220 (don't want to be there again). I was wondering if all or any of you get sick & tired of people saying you weigh alot because your tall???? people tell me that all the time when I tell them how much i weigh...
